Abstract

Buganda was the foremost kingdom of the Great Lakes region of Africa by the time European explorers encountered it in the late nineteenth century, but little is known of its archaeological past. Since 2000 a team from the Institute, working with colleagues in Uganda, have been carrying out a programme of archaeological survey and excavation to investigate Buganda's past and have communicated their findings locally by means of museum displays and a travelling exhibition.
